So that leaves a messy house, kids that need bathed, mail to be answered, pictures to be organized, shopping, and (if you can believe it) snow to be shoveled.
Yet here I am snuggled under a blanket watching the snow drift listlessly from the trees. I haven't even got to rake yet. The leaves are still green and on the trees. I should be tackling these leftover projects instead I am pondering why it seems to snow by Halloween every year. It always makes me want to hibernate.
Overall it was a fun month. Shane and I spent a quiet beautiful weekend up at Sherwood Hills for my birthday. Drake and Tristan played at the Kangaroo Zoo for theirs. Aiden made a great survivor in the undead race and even beat my time. Garet looks so big and exprienced when he plays as our football defense diva. Mom and I spent a shopping overnighter in Park City as a trial mother/daughter only outing. The kids exhausted and scared themselves at Lagoon. Then they all dressed up the next day for the family halloween party. So now last night's snowfall gives me reason to slow down and relax like it does every year. Another reason to love October. To wind down and be cold til May. October rocks!
